Saying 'Grace' in a Restaurant

Last week, I was present at a restaurant with my grandchildren.

My six-year-old grandson asked if he could say grace.

As we bowed our heads he said, 'God is good, God is great. Thank you for the food, and I would even thank you more if Mom gets us ice cream for dessert. And Liberty and justice for all! Amen!'

Along with the laughter from the other customers nearby, I heard a woman remark, 'That's what's wrong with this country. Kids today don't even know how to… Continue

Words of God is alive ! Matthew 6:9

Dear brothers and sisters,

Thank you for your advices and prayers.

Last few weeks, I experienced something which were rather surprising.

First, my wife has accepted Christ after 20 over years.

Second, I felt the words of God are always living day by day.

I now am able to study His Words naturally.

Also the going to Church on Sundays comes naturally and willingly !

Praise the Lord, he is almighty.

I saw evils on the internet too, camoflouged… Continue

LOVING HIS APPEARING

I'm not a "date setter." The Bible does not give us license to do that. Jesus said that no one knew the day or hour of His return--not even the angels in heaven--only the Father. BUT--He did tell us to watch. He told us that we would know His return was near by the "signs of the times."

Israel is the place to watch. The Jews are still God's Chosen People. He has not--He will not forget them. The Bible speaks of the turmoil Israel and all… Continue

Is Jesus coming in our lifetime?

A couple minutes ago, I have read about the news, aligning along with the prophecies. Also, viewed two clips from endtimes minstries. I have wondered if our generation is in the endtimes, should we warn others or patiently wait for our Lord to return? Here is two video clips that I have viewed.…

Blog Numero Douze: My Condolences

I'm looking over a bill for one of our deceased. The man from the funeral home called several times, "is there someone? anyone?" he asked each time. There is no one. The funerals will be tomorrow, no one will attend, There is no family, no friend, there is a court-appointed guardian who could not return my calls three months ago, she didn't seem to care much. Noone cares, here and there, someone said some nice things, "oh he was nice" "i can't believe he's dead" but not much more, life will go… Continue

You're for me

You're for me

God, I know that You're for me.

You answer every cry I make to You.

Whether I'm singing Your praise or crying out in hurt and pain, I know that You'll answer me in the way that's Your will.

I thank You for being there for me through good and bad times.

Your love has seen me through some tough times recently, but now my life is on the up again.

And I just want to praise Your name.

Judgement and Grace

Judgement and Grace

Lord, I know that at times I am too quick to judge

I know that I should be more gracious even when people have done bad things

Lord, You know my heart

You know when I judge

Help me to show Your grace no matter what people have done

You are the only one who can judge wrong doers who do the things which are not Your will

I ask this in Your name

Written 9th June during a healing meeting in Omagh Community Church.… Continue

Judgement

Judgement

Lord, I know that Your word says to judge others as I wish to be judged.
I know that I should show Your love and grace to all.
I know I don't always show Your love and grace to people who do evil things.
Especially those who hurt others.
So now I turn my eyes to You.
And ask You to show me how to be less judgemental.
And to show Your love and grace to everyone.

Thoughts

I was reading a news article today re: a speech Sen. Obama made to a chritian group. Apparenty he quoted the Old Testament, then stated our defense dept couldnt live by the teachings of Christ at the sermon on the mount.

Of course I read the sermon on the mount after reading this article.

One Sunday night at church we discussed The doctine of Christ vs The Doctine of Man. How people take scripture and "change" the meanings to fit their life and their needs. It is what it… Continue

Depression: 01

Okay.. I've had it.

Depression, I mean, since 3rd grade.

No, seriously, I did.

Now I'm in my 2nd year of High School... and it's not getting better, maybe a little, but it definitely isn't noticeable.

I cry. I sulk. I blame everything. Sometimes.

I know maybe it's just me, not noticing all the good things around me. I appreciate them, really. It's just... it's.. me and all the things around me.

My "friends".… Continue

In the wilderness

Last July was a terrifying experience.
I lost my job out of betrayal.
I had some drinks that consecutive nights, I felt like Christ has deserted me again.

Never seemed to be able to face the reality, that as a so called Christian, I failed in every aspect. Not been able to attend church on Sundays, finding it hard to read Bible over the years.
What went wrong ? Why did I do ?
Need your advices and rebuke me if necessary.

Sanctified Imagination

The gateway to a renewed mind and a sanctified imagination, begins when we start using the form of meditation and use of our imagination in the childlike ways God intended. This is the key to seeing in the Spirit and moving in the demonstration of the Spirit by understanding the language of God. He speaks in many different ways but the inward Kingdom’s tuning is the key to understanding the heart of God all around you. Inward to outward. Depth to heights. Romans 12 calls us to the “renewing of… Continue

Pray for our Troops and our leaders!

My brother, Daniel was sent over to Iraq and completed his duty in Feburary 2008. Now they are calling him from the reserves to go fight in Afghanistan in September. Please pray for my brother! Pray for the safety of all our troops and the situations that are happening overseas.

HOW TO BE BORN AGAIN

For God so loved the world , that he gave His only begotten Son , that who soever believeth in Him should not perish , but have everlasting life. John 3;16

But as many as received Him , to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe believe on His name. Which were born , not of blood , nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of the man but of God. John 1:12, 13.

Jesus answered and said unto him , verily, verily , I say unto thee. Except aman be born… Continue

The Quest - by: David Damien

For most of my Christian life, I have felt like I was on a quest for something more. I'm sure many of you can relate to this feeling. No matter how wonderful things are in my life or ministry, I have this deep cry in my heart, an insatiable desire to see the glory of God made manifest in the earth through His Body and for the name of the Lord to be feared and honoured even among those who don't yet know Him.

And while I am so thankful for every visitation of the Lord (or what we call… Continue

Embracing the Dream

National Leadership Gathering, David Damien, Watchmen for the Nations - Vision

Before the foundation of the world, God had a Dream. It was a dream of a family and a home.

God created the earth in all its majesty and wonder and within the earth He layed a jewel of beauty – a garden. And the Lord God took the man and woman that He had created in His very own image and likeness and made the garden their home. And there He rested in intimate fellowship with His… Continue

Baptism

The 8th of June 2008 was a very special day for me, it was the day I professed my faith in Christ Jesus.

My journey to Christ was long and the road was rocky, but what I found at the end was worth more than the pot at the end of a rainbow. It was more than the eye could see or the heart could yearn for. It was a new life, a journey, a completeness, a whole new world.

For my baptism I prepared a testimony which my Minister read at the service. To my surprise the words read out had a… Continue
